"Ingenuity, exhilaration, loss, consolation and return to happiness--Daniel Miyares packs all the turbulence of childhood play into 'Float. '"-- "-The Wall Street Journal"
DESCRIPTION
A little boy takes a boat made of newspaper out for a rainy-day adventure. The boy and his boat dance in the downpour and play in the puddles, but when the boy sends his boat floating down a gutter stream, it quickly gets away from him.
So of course the little boy goes on the hunt for his beloved boat--and when the rain lets up, he finds himself on a new adventure altogether.
This seemingly simple story from Daniel Miyares is enriched with incredible depth and texture that transcend words.
And this beautiful book has even more in store for young readers: endpapers with directions to make their very own paper boat.
